I have a Vortex Viper 6-24x50. I've had it for about three years. It replaced a ~15 year old Springfield Armory scope. Nothing has broken. I have heard mixed things about Vortex scopes but I love mine. The glass is a lot more clear and bright. the reticle is great. The controls are easy to see and u...

If it was stated above -I do not see it. My answer to the question posed here is to have alternatives and if all of those fail, have friends in different locations. I am not the most likable guy but my wife and I have friends and family all around the world -if my AO became uninhabitable and we had ...

You sound like a guy who knows his way around a snake! Can you answer a question that has been a mystery to me for several weeks? How do you distinguish a corn snake from a king snake (Let's ignore hybrids for the moment)? Is it just the colors and patterns or are there other features?

Remember, snakes have a very low metabolism so you can skip feeding them for two-four weeks. Roger! A word of caution, I was leaving for a trip to Europe for several weeks, so I fed my almost 5' corn snake three adult thawed mice. He ate them happily, then about an hour before leaving I looked in i...

Nope. Not trolling. I definitely wouldn't eat them (at least not until the bitterest of ends). We have an 11 week old corn snake and a 7 week old king snake. They're both about 15 inches long and live in their own 18x18x36 enclosures. They require water, heat, light and a baby mouse every five days....

Y'see I did something different this Summer. I bought something pretty, something relaxing to watch and amazingly enterta...

Something I've often wondered and this thread seems appropriate... I've heard that the most likely point of infection (I'm sure there's a cooler and fancier term for this like vector or something) are our eyes. I suspect this is why hand-washing is so encouraged. If we're to the point where masks ar...

I think this is a very important thread and am no one of any significance in this forum but I would like to remind everyone that we are not allowed to discuss politics here. I'd also encourage you to consider that all of the so-called rabid liberal attacks on the United States look very different fr...

I think the question should be, do you like Glock finger grooves or do you dislike Glock finger grooves? I have skinny fingers and like the grooves, so I am not interested in the Gen 5 pistols at all. Editing to add two points about your planned upgrades: 1. I would encourage you to take a look at T...

Been quite lately. I'm looking for advice on a CCW holster. Last time asked I got some good advice, such as "appendix carry has been shooting people's nuts off lately." Which kinda grabs a man's attention. Normally I don't worry about targets that small, but lately I've been rethinking that. So wit...
